Prayer Time<br />

Snack Time/CleanUp<br />

In the years that followed, the Hebrews prayed to God for help. God heard and cared<br />

for them. <strong>Moses</strong> was part of that plan, but first he had to grow up!<br />

God cares for us too. God has a plan for us. He has given us special things that we can do<br />

well—like draw, sing, l<strong>is</strong>ten, teach, etc. Why don’t you tell me some things that you can do?<br />

God has special plans for each of you. It’s up to us to l<strong>is</strong>ten to God and obey Him. We must<br />

do what He says. Just like <strong>Moses</strong>, we have to learn and grow up, too. It’s important to learn<br />

what God wants us to know, so that we can find out what H<strong>is</strong> special plan for us <strong>is</strong>.<br />

God also showed us how much He loved us. He knew that we could never get to Heaven on<br />

our own. We could never be good enough. So, God made a way for us to come to Him. He sent<br />

H<strong>is</strong> one and only Son, Jesus, to make a way for us. Jesus died on a rough cross to pay for all the<br />

wrong things that we have done. Then, three days later, Jesus came back to life! Because Jesus<br />

came back to life, we can go to Heaven one day if we believe in Him and trust Him with all our<br />

heart. If you would like to know more about how you can live with God one day in Heaven, talk<br />

to us about it.<br />

There are some fun activities and crafts in the packet. Use the ideas that will help<br />

your children learn.<br />

Ask the kids to think of ways that we know God loves us. Then explain from the<br />

verse God’s ultimate example of love—Jesus!<br />

Are the kids really praying? Do they understand? Ask them what prayer <strong>is</strong> and why<br />

we pray? See if they understand. If not, take time to explain the basics. If they do,<br />

ask them to be quiet and reverent before God (you may have to explain the word<br />

reverent—respectful).<br />

There was a cute snack idea in the packet. You may want to do that or use sweet<br />

snacks. Be sure that everyone has something to eat.<br />
